<br />From:Deborah Sevy <br />To:LPCtestimony <br />Subject:appose item #4 <br />Date:Thursday, September 12, 2024 9:32:52 AM <br />Aloha Planning commission, <br />I oppose Item #4. I do support Council Member Cindy Evans' proposed <br />telecommunications ordinance, Bill 194, which has already been forwarded <br />to you. The new ordinance that was proposed by the Director is overly <br />sympathetic to the telecommunications industry it does not do enough to <br />protect our Hawaii Island communities from the ill affects of 5G. <br />It gives almost total decision making power to Planning with no other <br />agencies or experts involved! It rushes the approval process to only 30 <br />days! It has no provisions to protect us against 5G small cells and <br />allows towers at schools and day care centers! <br />Please do the right thing and consider Council Member Evans proposed <br />ordinance which has clear, attainable requirements. It is the perfect <br />balance between the health, safety and welfare needs of the people and <br />the needs of the tech industry. <br />Mahalo for your Kokua, <br />Aloha, <br />Deborah Sevy <br />
